Fraz Labs Mechanical Flashlights (formerly QTC Non-Battery Crush)

has output been discussed? 18650........
from off to full on, 270 degrees of twist...?

I haven't been able to test actual output with a sphere yet. The old models were tested to 1060 lumens out the front I believe. And these new models are all noticeably brighter. I have a youtube video testing the Lumenite vs a lot of other known lights on my channel listed at the top of this thread. And judging by the beamshot nbp took of the Lumenite vs a 2000 lumen light, it's definitely decently north of 1k lumens.

The twist will vary as the QTC ages, but it is a smooth ramping that is very intuitive by feel.

That looks like my light  no? 

Yessir . PM sent to make sure I'm bundling your order correctly.

Some of the manufacturing processes that go into the lights...

Thanks sled! Tiny Nugget 18350 and Lumenite 26350.

A lot of cursing went into the making of this video. Especially with the cutoff tool and boring bar.

No strikes warranted. They all look very similar at those speeds lol. I'll put you on the list! I'm putting together more detailed info to add to the top posts that can help with your decision. My personal favorite is the Lumenite in either 26350 or 18650.

US made, infinitely variable, minimalistic, no electronics. Put me on the list for a 18350, please.

Gonna be that guy who, very prematurely, asks for a tiny, impossible to make, 14500 model, even before you reach full production of existing models.

Ha! If I ever saw the lathe move that fast I'd break a knuckle on the e-stop and then change my shorts.

Will do! And I'd like to miniaturize more. The pistons the light uses are a good exercise in making small parts....I think it might be possible...

18350!! PLEASE!

On my way in tomorrow morning to make new parts!

Hey @Glenn7 I just sent you a PM but your box is full. I'm updating the info now - I think I got it right this time.....maybe

machined one today!

 

[TheFraz]

I also have a Tiny Nugget available right now. I'm trying as best I can to get it to the first person in line that wants that light only, but if I don't hear from them soon I'll go to the next person. I should be able to fill a lot of the orders soon (with some wait times for those that requested special emitters).

Again, thanks for your patience.
